Laurie Garrett关于1918年大流感启示的报告

2007年当全世界都在担心禽流感暴发的时候，“瘟疫即将来袭”的作者Laurie Garret 对TED大学一部分观众进行了有力的演讲。她从过去疾病大流行中得到的深刻见解突然比任何时候都更加有意义。

Globalization means that pathogens can leap across continents at breakneck speed, turning local outbreaks into worldwide threats. The H5N1 avian flu killed 55 percent of infected people and has already reached dozens of countries, yet efforts to contain or prepare for such pandemics remain disjointed and inadequate. Attempts to stockpile drugs or vaccines often fail due to rapid viral mutation and limited effectiveness, while confusion reigns over who is truly in charge during an emergency. Real resilience demands coordinated, community-level planning rather than individual hoarding or reactive government measures.
